In the Moment: 40 Years of Reuters Photojournalism offers a sweeping look at four decades of images that have shaped public understanding of world events. More than a retrospective, it is a tribute to the photographers who have stood at the heart of unfolding history, responding with instinct, courage and a sense of duty that has long defined Reuters’ global mission. From the fall of the Berlin Wall to natural disasters, conflicts, elections and moments of quiet humanity, the book traces how a single frame can illuminate a story with a clarity that words alone cannot achieve.
Founded in London in 1851, Reuters has built its reputation on accuracy, speed and impartiality. Its photographers carry this responsibility directly into the field, often working under immense pressure and personal risk. Over the past forty years, they have chronicled crises and triumphs alike, producing an extraordinary visual archive that spans continents and cultures. This volume, illustrated with nearly 500 images, organizes these moments decade by decade, allowing readers to follow how visual journalism has evolved alongside technology, politics and global awareness.
What distinguishes the book is the presence of first-person accounts from the photographers themselves. Their narratives add emotional depth to the images, revealing the decisions, dangers and impulses behind each shutter release. These testimonies remind readers that photojournalism is not only about recording events, but about bearing witness — an act that requires sensitivity as much as bravery.
At a time when the media landscape is rapidly shifting and trust in reporting faces new challenges, In the Moment underscores the essential role of transparent, on-the-ground documentation. It celebrates the enduring value of photography as evidence, memory and moral testimony. This collection stands as a vital record of the past forty years, honoring those who have dedicated their lives to showing the world as it is, in its urgency, sorrow, resilience and hope.
Artists in the Photo League, active from 1936 to 1951, were known for capturing sharply revealing, compelling moments from everyday life. Their focus centered on New York City and its vibrant streets—a newsboy at work, a brass band on a bustling corner, a crowded beach at Coney Island. Though beautiful, the images harbor strong social commentary on issues of class, child labor, and opportunity. The Radical Camera explores the fascinating blend of aesthetics and social activism at the heart of the Photo League, tracing the group's left-leaning roots and idealism to the worker-photography movement in Europe. Influenced by mentors Lewis Hine, Berenice Abbott, and Paul Strand, artists in the Photo League worked within a unique complex comprising a school, a darkroom, a gallery, and a salon, in which photography was discussed as both a means for social change and an art form. The influence of the Photo League artists on modern photography was enormous, ushering in the New York School.
Presenting 150 works of the members of the Photo League alongside complementary essays that offer new interpretations of the League's work, ideas, and pedagogy, this beautifully illustrated book features artists including Margaret Bourke-White, Sid Grossman, Morris Engel, Lisette Model, Ruth Orkin, Walter Rosenblum, Aaron Siskind, W. Eugene Smith, and Weegee, among many others.

For over seven years, Of Lilies and Remains has explored the depths of the goth and darkwave underground, unfolding in Leipzig—a city long associated with a vibrant and enduring subcultural scene. Moving between iconic gatherings such as Wave-Gotik-Treffen and more intimate moments on the fringes, the project offers a rare and immersive glimpse into a world often misunderstood, yet rich in expression and community.
Created by Luca in collaboration with Laura Estelle Barmwoldt, the work embraces a cinematic and deeply personal approach. Rather than documenting from a distance, it moves within the scene itself, capturing its atmosphere, its codes, and its quiet contradictions. The title Of Lilies and Remains hints at this duality—where beauty and darkness, fragility and strength coexist.
As the book prepares for its release, we spoke with both artists about the origins of the project, their process, and what it means to document a subculture that continues to evolve while remaining true to its spirit.
Patterns: Art of the Natural World (Damiani) documents photographer Jon McCormack's meditation on the
geometric patterns that define our planet's most breathtaking landscapes and ecosystems. Through McCormack's
documentation, the Earth reveals itself as both architect and storyteller. Across continents and scales, from
microscopic mineral blooms to vast aerial geometries, the images trace a living grammar of pattern, rhythm, and
resonance that connects the intimate to the immense.
